and also you can watch all the additions of the weekly leaks on interview program that was on r c including the one where he talks to ecuador and president. hasn't been. on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact. the source material is what helps keep journalism we. we wanted to preserve. something real. a long lasting conflict between israel and the palestinians continues with new evidence of children and the front line testimonies of former israeli soldiers and a shocking video how they separated a mother from her daughter in a small palestinian village have taken the strive to a new level reports from town
1:08 am
a bit. there were demonstrations as indeed there are even weekend now be silent which is a palestinian village in footage that was captured on camera these soldiers can be seen going from house to house and physically taking people out of their homes one person was injured at least six people were thirty five of whom were children and there are pictures of the daughters of one woman trying to save their mother as she was manhandled by the soldiers who were using stun grenades now these reports come hot on the heels of another damning conclusion there is where the defense forces has come under fire from its own rank and file an organization known as breaking the silence has published the testimonies of some fifty israeli soldiers and commanders in which they deal specifically with how the i.d.f. treats palestinian children palestinian minors they talk about the op or treat of violence by soldiers when it comes to children and at the same time they say that very often the i.d.f.
1:09 am
deliberately target store and using them as human shields during its operations but these reports also going to say that even when children are not deliberately targeted they are not afforded any kind of protection when there is a shootout or any kind of military operation as you can witness from that distance that we published and from my own experiences as a soldier i have to say that the main point here is that there is there is no real distinction when it comes to treatment between adults and children for example we were doing constant are a stalker asians throughout the west bank arresting i don't know how many people you know on a nightly basis in many of the people that we were arresting were either children or teenagers did the most occasions we didn't even know why they were being arrested in one of the raid a parisian street we had to basically invaded the palestinian town south of the city of hebron the children started throwing stones at us so it's some point we picked a random kid that didn't even necessarily threw stones at us and used him as
1:10 am
a shoe. being thrown. by his supposed friends who did him instead of us we were all being that that would stop him somehow that would stop his friends from throwing stones obviously didn't help him he just got injured in india so certainly not a good time for the i.d.f. it's finding a been criticized on a number of friends policy r.t.e. television. and there's brings us via the case of pro palestinian us activist rachel corrie who was quoted by an israeli army bulldoze in two thousand and three they twenty three year old was taking part in a demonstration trying to stop palestinian homes from being destroyed and garza a court ruled that israel was not responsible but journalist tom dale who witnessed cory's death claims israel is trying to sway the incident under the rug. it's tremendously disappointing on the basis of what i saw on that day in two thousand and three it's absolutely not possible to characterize what happened next to them
1:11 am
in my view so i told the coach and as i told the israeli military investigation before that bulldozer driver had a very long drive up. before he got to rachel during which time he must have been able to see that even on the base of the this is shots presented to the court by the threat of military. head was visible above the top of the bull's eye sublight just before she was crushed and she came with an amount of trying to escape so my mind absolutely no doubt that he would have seen on this but it represents a want what happened on that day a culture in the israeli military impunity for such crimes and that culture impunity it's the silly take it fortunately sometimes by the courts who deliberately turn a blind eye of course the main shoulders on which the fools palestinian shoulders because it's full of civilians almost every area is
1:12 am
a civilian and so the israeli government to say we refuse to treat anyone in this area especially given that human rights because we've given it this particular name . coachmen treasonable happy to me i think that's just me serving that responsibility. this week iran was at the center of the global political stage showing that despite economic sanctions and widespread vilification it's not as isolated as largely believed donations from one hundred states gathered in tehran for the nonaligned movement summit a group of nations who don't consider themselves part of any power block dozens of country need is attended including egypt's new elected president mohamed morsi which marks the first visit to iran by an egyptian head of state south in one thousand nine hundred seventy nine islamic revolution the significance of the meeting was also underlined by the presence of the u.n. cheney who came despite the u.s. and discouraging him up doing so an independent research. explains what this says
1:13 am
about iran's role in the region the war. mr brime ki-moon does recognize the fact and he has said so the. player in the region and nothing much really can be solved . participation i'm sure that the united states and israel would like. to come down hard on iran but he's also aware of the fact there's two thirds of the countries that belong to the united nations are member countries of the nine aligned to the united states state department likes to say many things and i think that's precisely because. to be very aggressive in their foreign policy towards certain countries in particular although i think they have the whole goal in my love to be a global vision monic power. the nonaligned movement now is one hundred percent
1:14 am
coming together to resist this kind of aggression to resist this kind of double standards and hypocrisy and i think that's probably really thinking of the united states this finds. so the summit in tehran resulted in a declaration stating every nation's right to peaceful development and he said nuclear energy seen as a backing of iran's controversial nuclear program it came just as a new report by the un atomic watchdog emerged accusing the islamic state of stepping up its you've remained richmond and jew political analyst eric draitser the timing of the release shows the only a anything but unbiased the iranians first of all they believe that they have the inherent right according to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty that they have the right to have a nuclear program so long as it's for peaceful purposes as is now accepted international law the united states and israel too to a large extent are terribly embarrassed about the fact that the nonaligned movement summit has gone off as
1:15 am
a tremendous success and the fact that many around the world are seeing the n.a.m. summit as really iran's coming out party in terms of geopolitics in terms of their position on the world stage and so the timing of the report i think is is in fact dubious and i would go further and remind people that the. a in many ways is part of what the leader in iran called the overt dictatorship of the united nations that is to say that the i.a.e.a. is always led by us produced think tank individuals like eldora di or his predecessors who will inevitably execute the agenda of the western powers regardless of whether that contravenes international law. so there had for you here or not see a history of flip flopping on political issues us public and presidential nominee amy twomey is becoming more of a punchline than a clear frontrunner for the white. also fears of radical islam spread
1:16 am
throughout russia after muslim leaders come under time in the city. that's coming up later this hour but now britain's high court has given the final verdict this week in one of the most expansive bottles in legal history russian tycoon. has lost a multi-billion dollar play against his fellow countrymen ramon abramovich the chance a football club owner a months long standoff between the two oligarchs living in the u.k. scandalous accusations of greed and his honesty. takes a closer look at the case the final verdict in this case found against bodies which means that he won't receive a cent of the more than five point six billion dollars that he was asking for which . was not in court was he a relieved looking very upbeat saying that he had full confidence in the british legal system that was the verdict was being read he held his head in his hands and
1:17 am
as he was leaving he appeared to have lost confidence in the british legal system now this is a case that has opened up for the viewing of the general public the murky world of russia's mega rich and what they got up to back in the nineteen ninety's the wild east as we called it back then we're talking about massive sums of money off shore bank accounts elicit payments made between people often in massive sums of cash and there are of course five star hotels ski resorts and enormous business deals done only on the strength of the a handshake with new documentation which of course has made this case a very difficult one to judge is being. to london to school building a billion eggs along with their own megger expensive lawyers and bodyguards who walked around this area in their shades in a menacing way but he spit his old ski says that he was done out of billions of
1:18 am
dollars when he says that i'm over it intimidated him into selling shares in russian metals and oil companies for a fraction of what they were but abramovich says that in fact he would never business partners that he was making payments to bet as they were only for political protection. roof in russian which has become a common hollins in the legal circles here in london as a result of this case is that he did make regular payments to put his. full political protection but he says that they weren't anything to do with the partnership they were often made into huge cash sums up to five million dollars hundred cash and totaling several hundred million dollars he says that he paid to travel in a private jet that he bought him a french chateau and he also bought him jewelry for his girlfriend but he wanted five point six billion dollars on top of the one point two billion that he received
1:19 am
back in two thousand and two from this is been one of the biggest civil trials ever held in british legal history it's been hundreds of hours and resulted in millions of dollars worth of legal fees so we've heard the results of this case. when for better this time around we may see more cases of this nature here in london. and plenty more news available on our website home headlines of the stories that you may have missed on ash like you don't need to stand thousands of dollars to make a dream come true our chinese hope it stands now tromping on the tree sports car. also that mind games chinese. scientists close the gap between man and machine by inventing the controlled.

us presidential candidate to me troll nick criticised current president of broadband that for he's hung foreign affairs at the republican national convention this week his comments could be worse and for other nations as america's presidential election approaches romney has a history of flip flopping on issues that are so it's hard to tell what his message will become. so he's going to trickle down explain. mitt romney is now officially barack obama's opponent for the white house and he's talking tough throwing rocks well verbal rocks not only the president but also nations at the republican convention where he accepted his nomination mr romney did not fail to once again highlight his any masorti towards russia he criticized the president for not being hard enough in his view on russia when it comes to missile defense mitt romney says under his administration quote mr putin will see less flexibility and more backbone
1:21 am
end of quote and of course that adds up to his earlier statements that russia is america's number one geopolitical enemy that they need to reset the reset that's actually what he says on his website as part of mitt romney's foreign policy agenda so yes a lot of tough talk i heard experts say that's how mitt romney makes up for a lack of charisma what's interesting about the backbone comment is that mitt romney himself is often characterized as lacking the backbone as he has flip flopped on so many issues like abortion he was for abortion before he was against it or illegal immigration he was for giving them legal status that he was for deporting them mitt romney is flip flops have been widely discussed they've become an endless source of inspiration for comedians this is this is a joke from the tonight show with jay leno it's actually mitt romney and hurricane isaac have something in common they can both change directions at any moment and
1:22 am
another comedian goes obama is like you can be whatever you want to be while romney is like i can be whatever you want me to be there are tons of jokes about mitt romney and his backbone issues apparently one way of showing some backbone for him is this kind of tough talk full of threats we'll see how far it will take him in this november election with a two party system in the us some voters feel they aren't. with much of a choice and next hour author andrew levin shares what he sees as the flaws in america's electro system but here's a preview. at the level of underlying political vision or underlying political orientation there isn't that much difference romney would probably be perfectly happy doing what obama does we have a media which is so there all the control and. all the institutions that

manufacture opinion are so pervasive and our electoral system has become basically like an advertising it's become a sales promotions their brand and there are people trying to sell different products one of two products. it's. a pressure that not all it's not so much of the pressure the tard to resist it's a pressure that most people or most people aren't even aware that there is an alternative. let's now take a look at some other stories from around the world this hour at least a dozen people are dead after a double suicide bombing near a military base in central afghanistan more than seventy others were injured they turn about it sent out two bombers one driving a truck packed with explosives and the other one on foot. in belgium protests against the early release of the accomplice and ex-wife of a notorious child killer and paedophile have ended in scuffles with police the

and muslim figures in the republic of tatarstan some experts believe the roots of extremism all the way to the middle east but others say this threat from islamic hatred could become even stronger he reports. the trip to work that turned to tragedy that our stance had moved he was driving when a series of blasts threw him from his car the man who's been openly against the spread of radical ideas among the lever survived to find out his deputy was shot dead in another part of town investigators still don't know the exact motivation behind the attack but the spotlight is now on the other stun most people here are muslim and that gets mentioned more and more when it comes to the spread of radical islam in russia yes some of the local muslim communities are financed by arab families from states where is an official religion or they got the money has to be worked off and they demand their ideology is spread here that it's. like

a business is one of the most fundamental branches of islam it's strongly advocated in saudi arabia which backs it up with billions of dollars of support across the muslim world its followers often oppose all other religions sometimes even calling for jihad holy war against them but some business or any other radical movement of us live of course not part of the official religion here but i thought the same different ideas often taught in small mosques hidden from the mainstream. like this one form a boiler house rebuilt into a mosque in one of gazans many apartment blocks the art it's the mom's denying being radical but admit they do not support their stance official branches of islam and we don't divide brother muslims and there can be no radicalism no terrorism these are words only used by prove a kidders who want to discredit as. we were told here believers are taught sincerity any quality there are no longer up held in modern society look at with
1:27 am
justice can only be achieved through islam someone says islam is the only fan way of life and social order they're called radical or extremist and what's the punishment for stealing the hand. not the kind of punishment you'd find in russia's criminal court nevertheless such ideas are reportedly gaining more support among young muslims for some experts it could be partly to blame on how the list of banned extremist literature was thrown together. often in books by classical world famous authors have banned or in some of prophet muhammad saints how can we expect muslims to react and of course the radicals use this to gain influence. of course start our son is a long way from becoming engulfed by the war stuff radical islam how the state reacts to the spread of extremism is now keep the real news could only worsen the situation you go to school of r.g.p.

the crew of the russian three masts sailing ship mir has little time to prepare ahead of the second phase of the two thousand and twelve toll ships race nevertheless a fine five minutes for a brief meeting ceremony. i would like to congratulate you today as we begin our voyage out to sea i hope we'll have a good start this time too i urge you all to do your best like it was. the crew success is a matter of honor for the captain and instructor of mir he will soon be celebrating his seventy fifth birthday and has devoted a third of his life to the world's fastest sailing boat victory would be the perfect gift that the crew will need to give it their all in the first phase of the two thousand and twelve tall ships race ended with a discouraging result from the air. of the building actually we were the first to
1:33 am
come in after the first lap but after time update we turned out to be third in our class of ships. and frederic chopin polish sailboats where head of us our sister ship from poland will be our main rival both ships have similar designs and sails according to the time correction will last about thirty minutes during the first phase i. think again a thirty to ninety minutes will be enough for us to win here to give a long blast get. that. long one by. by noon more than thirty sail boats have left the port of lisbon the second part of the race is short little more than two hundred nautical miles may will need to make up for the time she lost in the first place before she reaches the spanish port of kids is the crew unfurls mir sails all three thousand square metres all.
1:34 am
over all of the boats in this prestigious class of ships near has the greatest claim to victory her rivals pale in comparison to the number of wins she has racked up over the years she also boasts a skilful crew. strictly speaking these races are a side project for me the russian ship is primarily for training purposes cadets of them a car of academy a would be captains of the russian merchant fleet and they learn how to set sail climb the rigging and timing knots call them the age of nuclear vessels such skills seem as useful as speaking latin. your best out there where you. will get your any seaman must have practiced as well as theory decides they need to have certain character traits epaulets as well as sailors are sent to other sail boats because these people need to make the right decision in the nick of time the

sail boat offers the best schooling and character training. day fowle of canada knows what the person of his main sail wants him to do their commands are not translated into english after spending several months on may he's used to the routine and why. so expect it of him indeed sometimes he copes with his assignments better than his russian comrades this is not my first time on this type of vessel and still aboard a vessel called the picture council on the around the world voyage and doing this made me realize i want to sail a tall ship a for a living and so i went to school to be a navigator and this was not one of the opportunities for our work term was to come on the show that. there were about twenty trainees like dave on the ship like the sailors they keep watch and they also share courses with the crew there's only one thing that sets them apart they have to pay for the privilege is
1:36 am
a floating democracy even the old superstition about women on board being a bad omen is ignored right you know twenty young female cadets some trainees are taking part in the race. my name's liane i'm from hamburg germany and yeah this is my second time on the air i would say that the big guys help us better we try to do our best like calling the ropes and so on it's not difficult but it hard labor like physically are right now i'm fighting the position in the atlantic ocean on route it is and that's i plodded every half an hour i feel great about it we all work together as a team and we help each other through it also makes it ok. for chickie's pilot steering mir leaves the bay at two pm there is less than an hour to go before the race starts.
